September again after August. Apple laid off workers again (Apple Layoffs). After cutting 200 jobs last month, the US multinational technology company is on track to lay off more workers for the second time.
According to a report, several employees from the Fitness Plus team have lost their jobs. This anger fell on the staff working in the audio department. This category includes multiple features like 'Time to Talk' and 'Time to Run'. A feature through which users can listen to the audio on the Apple Watch and use the guidance. According to the report, due to reduced staffing in this department, the speed of releasing new audio content in the future may be slower than before. For now the features are not fully closed for users.
Fitness Plus, a division of the company that has been laid off, is a subscription-based fitness service from Apple. Fitness Plus offers a variety of guided exercise content, especially for those Apple Watch users who want a trainer-led workout. The work of this department involves the development of various artificial intelligence based features of Apple. As a result, the US technology company decided to reduce staff in a new department after that layoff.
